Offshore bank

An offshore bank is a bank located outside the country of residence of the depositor. Typically, an individual or company will use an offshore bank in a low-tax jurisdiction (or tax haven) that provides financial and legal advantages. These advantages typically include:

greater privacy (see also bank secrecy, a principle born with the 1934 Swiss Banking Act)

little or no taxation (i.e. tax havens)

easy access to deposits (at least in terms of regulation)

protection against local, political, or financial instability

While the term originates from the Channel Islands being "offshore" from the United Kingdom, and while most offshore banks are located in island nations to this day, the term is used figuratively to refer to any bank used for these advantages, regardless of location. Thus, an "offshore banks" include Swiss banks and those of other landlocked nations such as Luxembourg and Andorra.

Andrew

Andrew is the English form of a given name common in many countries. In the 1990s it was among the top ten most popular names for boys in English-speaking countries. In Italian, the equivalent to "Andrew" is "Andrea", though "Andrea" is feminine in most other languages. "Andrew" is frequently shortened to "Andy" or "Drew". The word is derived from the Greek: Ανδρέας, Andreas, itself related to Ancient Greek: ἀνήρ/ἀνδρός aner/andros, "man" (as opposed to "woman"), thus meaning "manly" and, as consequence, "strong", "courageous", and "warrior". In the King James Bible, the Greek "Ἀνδρέας" is translated as Andrew.

The continent is surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea to the north, both the Suez Canal and the Red Sea along the Sinai Peninsula to the northeast, the Indian Ocean to the southeast, and the Atlantic Ocean to the west. The continent includes Madagascar and various archipelagos. It contains 54 fully recognized sovereign states (countries), nine territories and two de facto independent states with limited or no recognition.

The WORST offshore bank in the world
http://www.nomadcapitalist.com/offshore-banking/ Offshore banking isn't always as simple as opening an account at any foreign bank. In fact, many banks overseas offer terrible customer service and a lack of stability. However, one bank stands out as the absolute worst around the world: HSBC. Blogs will tell you that HSBC Premier is an easy way to move money around the world. Don't believe it. HSBC US is just as incompetent as HSBC Hong Kong. Global View doesn't work as promised. Premier benefits aren't offered in other countries, regardless of what is promised. If you love endless bureaucracy, employees who don't know their own policies, hours waiting on hold, and being made an unpaid employee of your bank, then HSBC is for you. For the rest of us, avoid HSBC. ----- ABOUT NOMAD CAPITALIST Andrew Henderson travels to nearly 30 countries every year to stay up to date on the latest legal strategies for entrepreneurs and investors to pay less tax, grow their money faster, and build their personal freedom.

Comoros Banks Offshore
The Comoros, officially the Union of the Comoros (Comorian: Udzima wa Komori, French: Union des Comores, Arabic: الاتحاد القمري‎ al-Ittiḥād al-Qumurī / Qamarī) is a sovereign archipelago island nation in the Indian Ocean, located at the northern end of the Mozambique Channel off the eastern coast of Africa, between northeastern Mozambique and northwestern Madagascar. Other countries near the Comoros are Tanzania to the northwest and the Seychelles to the northeast. Its capital is Moroni, on Grande Comore. At 1,862 km2 (719 sq mi), excluding the contested island of Mayotte, the Comoros is the third-smallest African nation by area. Each Island have a different financial law and Anjouan and Mwali have International Services Authority. Anjouan is an autonomous island in the Indian Ocean that has formed part of the Comoros since it reached its independence in 1975, when, together with Moheli, it requested secession. It proclaimed itself the independent State of Anjouan in August of 1997, with Foundi Abdallah as president. Then, the island requested integration with the French Republic, but France refused the request. Later, Anjouan adopted a constitution through a referendum held on February 25, 1998. The end of the 20th Century was convulsive for Anjouan, because several coup d'état took place. After the creation of the Union of the Comoros, the islands accepted integration into this new formation in 2002; however, internal problems continued between forces loyal to Mohamed Bacar and the opposition. Anjouan was invaded by the Union military in 2008, followed by its new declaration of independence, with Bacar seeking political asylum. The changes were positive and the island was finally successful in establishing itself politically and economically. Anjouan uses the Comorian Franc, minted by the Bank of France and issued by the island's Central Bank, as its currency. The island's economy depends on agriculture and related industries. These employ more than 80% of the work force. Anjouan is the world's main exporter of ylang-ylang oil, an ingredient used in almost all perfumes. Anjouan has offered licenses to more than 300 offshore banks. The Offshore Financial Authority of Anjouan, whose objective is to attract foreign capital by offering ample fiscal advantages, has existed since 2002. In 2005, by signing new laws, the Limited Services Corporation of Anjouan obtained the right and authority as a registered agent for all international business companies and the issue of bank licenses. This Corporation received some inquiries, but the Supreme Court of Justice of London confirmed its legal rights to operate offshore businesses, with the complete consensus of the Anjouan Government.

Ghana could become Africa's 4th biggest oil producer by 2020
Ghana could become the fourth biggest oil producer in sub-Saharan Africa by 2020 once two new offshore fields come on stream. The West African country is currently ranked at the ninth, producing around 103,000 barrels per day. This is far behind Nigeria and Angola, which produce an average of 1.867 million and 1.754 million respectively. Ghana's Tweneboa field came on stream in August and is expected to increase output to 80,000 barrels per day. The Jubilee field, which started producing oil in 2010, could bounce back to production of around 115,000 barrels. At the same time, the Sankofa field is due to open in August 2017 and should produce around 30,000 barrels.

Frontier investment markets in Africa worth watching
http://www.nomadcapitalist.com Has the time finally come for Africa's frontier markets? Andrew has identified four African frontier economies, outside of the larger South Africa: One of the most interesting is Gambia. Another one is Djibouti, as it definitely shows a lot of promise. The third one is Botswana – one of the best-managed economies in Africa, and on the list, there is Zambia as well. As a living base, Andrew is keeping eye on the South Africa, as it is among some of the best frontier markets in Africa for investment, and can be a future great choice. The time for Africa’s frontier markets is not yet here (unless you are ready for "risk-adjusted" returns through diversification), but keep an increasing focus on investments in Africa because it has a potential to become one of the next major growth regions of the world.

Madeira Banks Offshore
Madeira is a group of small islands, located 1000 km between Portugal and the coast of Africa. The capital, Funchal, has an airport that is well linked to European cities. Madeira is part of Portugal. Madeira's government has a high degree of autonomy in elation to Portugal, even though Portuguese legislation is applied there, including tax laws. Its economy is based on tourism, fishing, agriculture and financial services. As a poor, outlying region of the European Union, it receives ample sums for development from the EU. Its currency is the Euro. There is an international business Center in Madeira, thanks Portugal's coordination with the EU that offered offshore status and minimum taxes for manufacturing, services and financial companies until 2001. At the end of 2002, the EU approved an extension of the scheme; however, it excluded incorporation services for new companies. The Free Trade Zone, in the International Business Center, has been very successful. The VAT is applied in Madeira, although at a lower rate than in Portugal. Lisbon has been very careful in developing Madeira's offshore economy. Portugal has a large network of double taxation Treaties which can be used in the international business Center to obtain fiscal advantages in various commercial activities. Furthermore, Madeira has ascribed to the European legislation against money laundering and is not known for allowing criminal activities. Lately, there have been economic problems in Madeira, so that the local government implemented a series of cutbacks and increased taxes. Corporate income tax went from 20% to 25%, which put them on the same level as Portugal. Personal tax rates were also raised to equal those existing in Portugal. The VAT went from 16% to 22% in April 2012. In addition, public unemployment increased. All this influenced the decrease of businessmen's interest in Madeira's minimum tax industry.

SECRET Files Reveal Rothschild's Offshore Domain
One of the biggest collaborative efforts in the history of journalism by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists has exposed a large part of the dark, secretive world of offshore tax havens where the wealthy hide their fortunes from governments. In their ongoing report, they've now named a member of one of the richest families in the history of the world: the Rothschilds. In just the week since this report was first released, we've already seen governments around the world responding: -French President Francois Hollande has called for the "eradication" of the world's tax havens. -Europe's five biggest economic powers — Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Spain —announced they would begin regularly exchanging banking and tax information. -Luxembourg's Prime Minister Jean-Claude Juncker announced his country plans to lift bank secrecy rules for European Union citizens. A major step for a country whose banking industry is roughly 22 times the size of its economy. -The Indian Finance Minister P. Chidambaram said an inquiry had been initiated by the authorities against individuals whose names figured in the global media report. -Philippine government officials said they will investigate evidence that Maria Imelda Marcos Manotoc, a provincial governor and daughter of the late dictator Ferdinand Marcos, was the beneficiary of a secret BVI offshore trust. http://www.icij.org/blog/2013/04/highlights-offshore-leaks-so-far Watch the full episode of The Daily Conversation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0AXlWL6st30 Keywords: Secret,Files,Reveal,Rothschild,Banking,Offshore,Account,ICIJ,Bank,Banks,UK,England,France,British Virgin Islands,America,United,United Kingdom (Country),United States (Country),Europe,Germany,World,President Francois Hollande,China,Canada,Australia,Russia,Nations,States,USA,Japan,Spain,Netherlands,Belgium,Luxembourg,International Consortium of Investigative Journalists,Asia,Currency,LIBOR,Brazil,European,EU,Africa,Foreign Policy,News,Politics,Documentary,India,Britain,Economy

Offshore banking - know more about it.

Offshore banking - know more about it.

Offshore banking - know more about it.
Why Consider Offshore Banking for Your Personal and Financial Privacy in this Post 9 / 11 Era. The point is, by moving assets offshore, you regain control. Offshore, there are entire jurisdictions organized to play by your rules. You design the game, and you get to be the winner. There are major concerns concerning privacy. An offshore financial involvement offers you and your family the one and only escape from this government-endorsed conspiracy. Just as you can legitimately make more money oversees than you could ever hope to earn in this country, you can also look forward to enjoying your foreign profits in an atmosphere of complete confidentiality. To ensure your own financial privacy, you must do two things. First, you must minimize the amount of information that gets created about you. Second, you need to verify and limit access to the information that already exists. That may sound like elementary advice, but remember, the experts say that we ourselves provide government and private industry with most of the data they maintain on us. In fact, one study concludes that more than 72 percent of the time, investigators obtains their information from the very people they are monitoring. So, out of respect for the fact that you will probably want to keep some portion of your assets within the United States, take a minute and consider ways that you can protect yourself from unnecessary invasion of privacy. Just to get you thinking along the right track, here are some practical suggestions. Don't do business with that kind of place! Instead, look for a bank that's willing to ensure the highest possible level of financial confidentiality. A good way to identify the right institution is to ask for a written contract that sets down the ground rules for your professional relationship. Make sure your contract includes at least these two provisions: the bank must notify you whenever anyone asks to see your records; and you reserve the right to periodically see and correct any records the bank may keep on you. A second rule of thumb is to conduct low-profile banking. Think about it. By reviewing nothing more than your monthly checking account statement, an investigating agent could learn a lot about you — where you shop, the restaurants you frequent, the names of friends and relatives, your religious and political affiliations, even the private clubs at which you have a membership. In essence, the account provides a panoramic view of your everyday lifestyle. You should aim to reduce the clarity of that view. There are about two thousand separate credit bureaus in this country, and they all carry data that could potentially be used against you. Under the Fair Credit Reporting Act, you can demand to know what is in your file. If you disagree with any of the information you find in it, you can insist that another investigation be done. If that second go-around doesn't resolve the matter, you can enter your own statement of explanation as a permanent part of the credit file. Within the United States, it's possible to work like a dog, diligently and ferociously safeguarding the limited privacy that our legal system still allows. Frankly, the incredibly rich don't need to bother. They're already protected by sophisticated investment plans — usually they include offshore involvements. The very poor don't make much effort either. They're too busy making ends meet, and Uncle Sam isn't vigorous in pursuit of information about them. They don't have enough money to make it worth his while. Finally, of course, there are the very crooked. They don't spend time protecting a legal right to privacy because illegal activity keeps them pretty well-occupied and camouflaged. That still leaves a lot of people. People like you whose level of success makes them aware of how the government systematically deprives them of personal financial privacy but who hesitate to take any drastic action. By moving a portion of your money offshore, you can give yourself an immediate escape valve. Offshore banking can help you regain control your personal and financial privacy. It is an option in the post 9 /11 era that you should take seriously for yourself and your family's financial and personal privacy. Visit www.globalbankingandfinance.com to learn more.

Do you need an offshore bank account if you don't have many assets? #NomadMailbag

Do you need an offshore bank account if you don't have many assets? #NomadMailbag
http://www.nomadcapitalist.com/offshore-banking Andrew answers a question from the #NomadMailbag: "If I don't have a lot of money, why do I need an offshore bank account?" Andrew explains that offshore bank accounts aren't about squirreling away wealth, but about having an offshore escape hatch against capital controls or other threats to your money. The less you have, the more important what you have is. While it is possible to earn (much) higher interest rates, the bank in different currencies, and enjoy other benefits with an offshore bank account, getting started is an important first step to global economic freedom. ----- ABOUT NOMAD CAPITALIST Andrew Henderson travels to nearly 30 countries every year to stay up to date on the latest legal strategies for entrepreneurs and investors to pay less tax, grow their money faster, and build their personal freedom. Andrew started Nomad Capitalist to help people like you follow his five magic words: "go where you're treated best". He has personally started foreign companies, opened offshore bank accounts, and obtained multiple second passports. He also learned the hard way that perpetual information seeking is often the biggest barrier to getting the results you want. Many entrepreneurs spend months and even years constantly researching how to pay less in tax or live overseas, but are afraid to make the jump. As a result, they get stuck and keep paying a fortune in taxes and never get the lifestyle they deserve. Nomad Capitalist's Youtube channel is based on Andrew's vision that focusing on the end result, rather than the latest shiny object, is the best way to actually obtain the benefits of the Nomad Capitalist lifestyle.
